Objective To investigate the role of local aldosterone system in oncofetal fibronectin ( oncofetal FN) mRNA expression and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in human mesangial cells (HMCs) exposed to short-term intermittent high glucose and the effect of Fenofibrate.Methods The HMCs were divided into 8 groups:normal glucose(NG) ;osmotic fluctuation(OF) ;mean glucose load (MGL) ;stable high glucose (SHG),short-term intermittent high glucose (IHG) ; intermittent high glucose plus eplerenone (IHGE) ; intermittent high glucose plus fenofibrate(IHGF) ; and normal glucose plus fenofibrate (NGF) groups.The mRNA expression levels of Aldosterone synthase ( CYP11 B2 ),11 β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 ( 11βHSD2 ) and oncofetal FN were determined by RT-PCR.The expression of CYP11B2 protein was determined by western-blot.Aldosterone level in cell culture supernatant was detected by radioimmunoassay.The expression and translocation of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR)protein were assayed with confocal laser scanning microscopy. ROS levels were determined by Fluorescence microscopy and fluorescence microplate reader.Results ( 1 ) MGL,SHG,and IHG groups showed a 2.41,3.63,and 4.45 times increase in CYP11B2 mRNA expression,and a 1.83,2.15,and 2.78 times increase in CYP11B2 protein expression,respectively,compared with NG group (P < 0.05 ).The aldosterone levels of HMCs culture supernatant in MGL,SHG,and IHG groups were also increased,being 1.49,2.04,and 2.54 times of that in NG group ( P<0.05 ),and the degree of elevation in IHG group was more marked than that in SHG group( P<0.05 ).MR was activated and translocated from cytosol to nucleus in MGL,SHG,and IHG groups.Quantitative analysis showed the ratioes of cytosol/nucleus fluorescence intensity in MGL,SHG,and IHG groups were 15%,38%,and 53% decreased as compared with that in NG group,and the decrease was more marked in IHG group ( P<0.05 ).(2) Oncofetal FN mRNA expression and ROS levels in MGL,SHG,and IHG groups were increased,being 1.54,2.31,3.65 and 1.26,1.91,2.48 times of those in NG group,respectively ( P<0.05 ),and this increase was more marked in group IHG ( P<O.05 ).Compared with IHG group,oncofetal FN mRNA expression and ROS levels in group IHGE were significantly decreased by 54% and 53%,and in group IHGF by 45% and 39%. ( 3 ) CYP11B2 mRNA,protein,and aldosterone levels in IHGF group were decreased by 74%,59%,and 50%,and the activation of MR in group IHGF was inhibited when the ratio of cytosol/nuclear fluorescence intensity was increased 1.88 fold as compared with that in group IHG ( P<0.05 ).Conclusions Increased expressions of oncofetal FN and ROS by HMCs induced by short-term intermittent high glucose were nore marked than those induced by stable high glucose.The mechanism was associated with activation of local aldosterone system.Fenofibrate may inhibit the activation of local aldosterone system and alleviate the injury to HMCs induced by intermittent high glucose.

AIM: To evaluate the efficacy and complications of intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide ( TA ) for the treatment of macular edema caused by pre-retinal membrane of the macular.
METHODS: Totally 23 patients ( 24 eyes ) with macular edema caused by pre-retinal membrane of the macular were treated withintravitreal injection of 4mg TA. Best-corrected visual acuity ( BCVA ) , intraocular pressure ( IOP ) , slit - lamp examination, fundus fluorescein angiography ( FFA ) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) were performed before and after treatment. The SPSS 12. 0 software was used for statistical analysis.
RESULTS: After 10, 30, 90d of treatment of TA, as compared with before treatment, visual acuity improved significantly ( P<0. 05 ), and central macular thickness (CMT) was significantly thinner (P<0. 01). The average central macular thickness decreased from 522 ± 126μm before treatment to 264±115μm, 245±128μm, 286±131μm at 10, 30, 90d after treatment. Macular edema reduced. IOP increased in 7 eyes ( 29%) , one cataract case, no other complications associated with vitreous injection.
CONCLUSION: Intravitreal injection of TA in the treatment of macular edema caused by pre - retinal membrane of the macular is simple, safe and easy to operate. It can quickly reduce macular edema, and improve the visual acuity in the short term. Part of patients may recur after injection in the first half of the year.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the quantitative and qualitative changes of peripheral-type benzodiazepine recepors (PBRs) in brain mitochodria and in platelet membrane in aging rats. MethodsMale Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 3- and 24-month groups. All animals were sacrificed by decapitation and the brains were immediately removed. Mitochondrial components from dissected cerebral cortex were isolated. The membrane of platelets from venous blood was prepared by the method of hypotonic hemolysis. The specific binding assay of the radioactive PBRs antagonist [3H]PK11195 to membrane was performed. Scatchard analysis was performed to estimate the equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) and the maximal binding site density (Bmax). ResultsA significant increase in [3H]PK11195 binding activity in the mitochodria from cerebral cortex in 24-month rats was observed compared to that in 3-month rats(P<0-001). Meanwhile, the Scatchard analysis revealed that there was an increase in Bmax, with a significant increase in Kd in 24-month rats. The same change of [3H]PK11195 binding activity was noted for platelet membrane in 24-month rats(P<0-001).ConclusionThe density of PBRs increases in cortex mitochondria in aging rats, but the binding affinity of PBRs decreases which may be attributable to the progressive pathogenesis of aging in rats. [3H] PK11195 binding activity of platelet membrane might reflect the change of PBRs in the brain tissue.

Successful pain management of perioperative shoulder arthroscopy may allow patients to go home earlier, improve the quality of life in perioperative period, and facilitate rehabilitation. A comprehensive method to perioperative pain control has three stages including preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative phase. Successful pain reduction should begin preoperatively because of an excellent communication between patient and physician, moreover, preoperative analgesia also should be administered. Intraoperative efforts should include local wound infiltration and the administration of anesthetic medication intra-articularly. Postoperative management should include oral analgesics, constant infusion devices, Patient Controlled Analgesia (PCA), sedative-hypnotic drug, continuous cryotherapy and vicarious treatment.
